2024 season · Quarterbacks, 31 qualifiers

Quarterback-Fault Sack Rate

Quarterback-Fault Sack Rate — 2024 NFL rankings, updated Aug 13, 2026. Will Levis (TEN) took more sacks of his own making than any other quarterback, on 7.0% of his dropbacks across 31 qualifying players. Based on verified 2024 play-by-play data (nflverse); Half-PPR scoring. Through the 2024 season.

Not every sack belongs to the offensive line. Charters mark the ones where the quarterback held the ball past the play's expiry, drifted up into pressure that was going to miss him, or missed an open receiver with time to throw. As a share of dropbacks that is the portion of a team's sack total the passer carries himself, and it is the reason two quarterbacks behind identical protection can post sack numbers that look nothing alike.
